SAHARA ROSE ABSOLUTE

Sahara Rose Absolute is a unisex extrait de parfum by Habibi New York, the American house founded by Shakir Ahmed and Tabassum Khan, whose name means “my beloved” in Arabic. Signed by Hüseyin Erdoğmuş, it is an intense, refined oriental rose with a heart of oud and saffron: as rare and enchanting as a rose blooming in the desert.

The Fragrance

Sahara Rose Absolute tells of a rose that has never seen a garden: born among the sand and wind of the desert, strong and graceful at the same time. It is the portrait of a proud, silent beauty that needs no raised voice to make itself felt, combining the delicacy of petals with the warmth of spices and precious woods. A fragrance for those who seek quiet power. Handcrafted in small batches with a 25% concentration.

How It Evolves on Skin

The opening is bright and floral: Turkish rose lights up next to geranium and jasmine. In the heart the rose becomes darker and more precious, wrapped in oud, saffron, the sacred smoke of incense and the spark of pink pepper. In the base, woody notes, amber, sandalwood and vetiver blend with musk and white musk, in a warm, elegant, long-lasting base.

Who We Recommend Sahara Rose Absolute To

We recommend Sahara Rose Absolute to those who love rose in an oriental version, enriched by oud and spices, and to anyone looking for an elegant, bold perfume for important occasions. It is perfect in autumn, in winter and on spring evenings. Unisex, it suits him and her.
